Conservatives controlled America for all but 2 years in this century, only in 2008-2010 both executive and legislative branches were under Democrats. Republicans heavily gerrymandered country in their favor in 2010 and given that 2020 census is practically a failure, that advantage is going to stay. Conservatives get to control the SCOTUS for decades. Voters from the red states enjoy unfair influence their vote gives them via Senate.

If after all this the electorate feels profoundly unheard maybe they should look at who they vote for.
